Question

State the second law of thermodynamics.

Answer 1

1. The second law states that during the transfer of energy from one form to another or between the levels of the food chain the energy is lost in the form of heat energy.
2. From the second law of thermodynamics we can write:

$$\begin{gathered} Energyinhigherlevels<energypresentatthelowerlevels \\ or \\ Energybeforeconversion=energyafterconversion+lostenergy \end{gathered}$$
